Born Daniel Gale Hayes in 1983 to a Dancer and an Actor in North London. His love affair with music started at 7 when he was introduced to the trumpet. As a teenager he was fortunate enough to travel to countries ranging from South Africa to Amsterdam with the Haringey Big Band. It was experiences like these that fuelled a growing passion for musical adventures.
At 17 Daniel joined a punk band called JesseJames. Bright eyed and bushy tailed he set off with his horn supporting bands such as The Pogues, Lit, OPM, Bowling For Soup, Brian Setzer (Stray Cats) and 311.
In 2002 JesseJames picked up a record deal and set about releasing 2 EP’s and 2 Albums. It was in these studio sessions that Dan discovered a passion for the creative process of music making. He left JesseJames, brought a home studio, and danbeat was born.
Having spent a year teaching himself to use programmes such as Logic and Pro Tools he got a job engineering in Triggerfish studio’s, pushing buttons for artists such as Mpho Skeef, Fumin, Klashnekoff, Randolph Matthews and Fire Camp.
In 2006 danbeat met Mox (Ninja Tune VJ). With a shared passion for soulful electronic music and visuals, they created Shades. As a duo they have already created site-specific work for the Liberty Festival in Trafalgar Square, and a short for the NFT/Hayward. With a performance at Signals film festival under their belt already. They are hoping to take their partnership to new levels in 2007/8.
In 2007 danbeat has produced remixes for a diverse range of artists including The Pinker Tones, Pecker and Tor, played the trumpet for The Pogues, Imogen Heap and Kate Havnevik and made original scores for dance pieces and documentaries featured at/on Sadlers Wells, Stratford Circus, The Discovery Channel and Decibel. Meanwhile releasing his own music on labels such as Wah Wah 45’s, EmCee recordings, Jerona Fruits, DSM and Revolution Recs. In September 2007 danbeat was shortlisted by the Tate modern to have his music showcased in the gallery for a month.
